I was there about the same time. The dome is a truly moving experience. Hiroshima is an amazing city and Miyajima Island is so beautiful. Thank you to the people of Hiroshima for your kindness🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am American. i was born in 1957. The Hiroshima Memorial made me tear up. I had seen the bombed out building on TV but seeing it in this video brought to mind the horror that it endured. Seeing the long line of people going in to mourn the dead, etc., made me sad. The physical damage from the radiation has lasted generations, cancer, birth defects. The emotional damage will last longer. 🙁 When I studied Japan in fifth grade, not a single thing was said about the bombings, or the war. We learned names of main islands, clothing and shoe styles, silk, took home silk butterfly that was laying eggs. We learned about the fishing and rice crops. My dad took me to Japantown in Los Angeles (where I grew up) and bought my mom a simple kamono which she wore as a summer robe. It had sleeves that hung down and closed with an attatched sash. I think it was cotton. That's all I remember from that grade. Maybe it's a lot. I don't remember what I studied in any other grades. I barely remember grammar school at all. I guess that teaching us about us bombing Japan at such a young age might have upset us. I can only guess that's why. I was shocked when I finally did learn about it in school when I was older. Since then, watching documentaries about the bombings and war on TV and UA-cam have given me a big understanding about them, etc.. For me, the bombs were nothing to be proud of and make me sad. I enjoy watching videos, docs., about Japan and enjoy learning about Japanese culture. Thank you, very much, for making this video. Jennifer
When I was young, we knew all about the atom bomb and it's history. I suppose children today are shielded from unpleasantness. I'm not sure that's such a good idea. This is not a Walt Disney world.
Yes , those weapons are terrible. However , the japanese war machine had to be stopped , just like the nazi one. What saddens me , right now , is people supporting and FUNDING ukranian neonazis. Maybe the use of such weapons may happen again.
@@garryferrington811 here in sweden they showed us a documentary about nukes in 5th or 6th grade. after that i become anxious actually and almost 30 yrs later i still am. i had nightmares about nukes and burning clouds. even more now because of the war in ukraine. nukes shouldn't exist but it's cool to see the footage from the tests. very frightening of course but fascinating
@@you2be839I’m 61 and I still love Hello Kitty. So I’m wondering what age you are talking about. I’d love to ride this train with my daughter, who is 45 and also still loves Hello Kitty. Might have to talk to her about taking a trip to ride it !
@@Ladywolf2263 It's nice that you enjoy Hello Kitty stuff, but like I've said, it's currently something that means very little to me at the age I'm currently in (over 40!).
scandinavian ferries are better. they're more like semi luxury cruise liners and almost as huge as the real cruise liners (12 stories the largest ones with 2 stories of cars and trucks, even in the 90's). japanese ferries are the ugliest i've ever seen (lol sorry japan) but they're very clean and modern and i love that they got capsule beds and vending machines even on the ferries so i just gotta love it. and i'm sure the service is perfect as always in japan. and the trains, my god just look at this train. the speed and luxury and creativity is priceless. especially the private cabin trains are wonderful
@@krisstopher8259 The Scandinavian ferries you mentioned seems very fancy😍 Then, there are a lot of ferry lines (187 inland lines 366 boats) in Japan. How many ferries have you experienced in Japan?
Thank you for sharing with us the way Japan remembers. I found it very moving and interesting. It made me consider how history is thought about in different perspectives.
I come to Japan every few years and this most recent one, my mother bought tickets for my sister to ride the Hello Kitty Shinkansen during our travel day, so I got to come along for the ride. I don't know anything about Hello Kitty, but it was incredibly adorable to ride on for all but 30 minutes.
I can't put into words why I think Japan is lovely it's so up to date every thing is just so, they think of your every comfort and so cleanliness, beautiful 😊
I love love this version of Shinkansen with Hello Kitty! Japanese are truly very creative! As you mentioned this train may be an older unit but renovated to attract kids for sure! Love it! Good idea for school kids field trip if i may suggest! Real nice one!
the only similar thing in the states is the disney cruise liners. but here in europe we don't have anything that odd/special but atleast the quality is high
Ahhh, at minute 20:16. The Sotetsu Fresa Hotel. I will be staying there for my visit to Hiroshima next month! Also I love your sense of humor. It's both funny and informative! Love your channel.
Was station in Japan in 1978 and went back there in 2002 for my company. Worked with many Japaneze from Hiroshima. Very nice people. God bless Japan. Nice People.....
15:07 - in the atomic bomb museum in the same park, they explain why the ruins still stood while everything else was gone - The building was so close to being directly underneath the detonation point that the blastwave slammed almost directly downwards. This punched all the floors into the ground, but the walls had relatively little horizontal force applied to them, so they stayed up.
I woke up with a headache today, I feel your pain. The heat this summer is wild! I'm glad you got a very interesting trip though. What a beautiful place.
My parents married, in a hurry, the day after the bombing, because Dad was in the US Navy and all ships were immediately ordered to sea. She didn't know when or if she'd see him again. I always think of them when I see mention of the bombing. It was a terrible thing and we must all pray it never happens again.
we must pray that a world war never happens again. Japanese were absolutely insane during WW2, all the atrocities they committed, one could argue the bombing saved lives in the long run by forcing the Emperor to surrender. Either way it's a horrible tragedy.
@@creed22solar123извращенная логика. Император уже практически сдался. Сша опробовала бомбы на двух разных городах. Эксперимент, так сказать. И сигнал ссср, что есть ядерная дубина против него. Так что, японцев использовали тогда, как сейчас запад использует Украину. Как подопытных кроликов. В своих целях.
This was absolutely fascinating the visit to the Memorial Park and the Peace Lantern Floating Ceremony. I'd like to learn more about this peaceful ritual. This whole video was very interesting. Thank you for sharing it with the rest of the world.
I think the Japanese have done more to educate the world about the dangers of nuclear war than anyone. I am deeply grateful to you as a people for this.
They had the bombs dropped on them by the US. The Japanese did not invent the bombs, J. Robert Oppenheimer, a US citizen, did. The US bomber was the Enola Gay and it dropped two bombs one on August 6, 1945, on Hiroshima and then on August 9, 1945, they missed their target city of Kokura and dropped it instead on Nagasaki. It ended the Second World War, but what an awful way to do it. 🥺🇨🇦🥺
Dr. Ted Fujita was a young boy in an area that was deemed too overcast for dropping one of the bombs so that city was spared. Dr. Fujita later developed a passionate interest in tornados and created the F-0 to F-5 intensity scale during his years at the U of Chicago. During his research, he noticed a similar sunburst damage pattern between the two bombings and tornadoes, which provided new insight into the inner workings of twisters. I learned all this from a fascinating PBS documentary about Dr. F.
@@McSymm_Mcsymm ask them about an American made reactor? Do you have any idea of how it was built? The tsunami walls were built higher than any height reached by a tsunami in the geological record, its just that the one that hit was much higher than anything in the geological record. Exactly how would you have anticipated this eventuality and prevented it? You want to compare their responses to the crises to Russia with Chernobyl? Why do you guys do this - is it for attention? Just showing up and drooling mindless impulsive negativity all over the comments section, not knowing any of the context or history of a topic - why is that even a thing anymore? Do you think constantly trolling people makes you look cool, and not like an awkward teen afraid to leaves his mom’s basement? I mean, it’s just as neurotic. The rest of humanity is not here for you to work out your neuroses using all of us as your unpaid therapists.
I hope your head is now Ok. respect that you continued filming for us despite the headache. Thanks. But next time you have a headache, it's better to rest. some greetings from Germany 🙂
I enjoyed your video. The Hello Kitty train is a unique experience, then there is Hiroshima and the lanterns. So much! Too bad about the sunstroke. I've had it and know how awful it is. 🥵 I hope you are better now.
Seeing the bombing dome really broke my heart 😢 but at least you had a beautiful day and the singing was so sweet❤ The lantern ceremony was just breath taking! What an amazing adventure!
Thanks for coming home tonight we enjoyed your trip, are u feeling ok now solo solo san? Maybe pink sickness hehe.. Wow I was amazed by that lantern event.. Til next time! ❣️❣️❣️👌
Had been to Hiroshima on 06.08.18 and witnessed lots of ceremonies that day - which was my most emotional experience in Japan. Super kind Japanese citizens even gifted me (and other foreigners) a peace origami flower with a golden crane inside. Having had a very pleasant vacation to that point, it was really sad to imagine what people had to go decades ago. Experiencing the minute of silence commemorating the fall of the bomb brought tears to my eyes - the contrast of a usually super busy population vs. now standing still (and I think even turning the cars off) was deeply moving. Loved the floating lanterns in the evening (and the rest of my vacation - I'd consider Japan my favorite country for traveling)
Thank you for sharing your trip! I didn't get to ride the Hello Kitty Shinkansen so we are living vicariously through this video!♡ The lanterns were such a beautiful touch and very sentimental.
While my favourite series of Shinkansen is the original 0 Series, the 500 Series comes a close second. With its extremely streamlined body and elongated nose, it looks more like a space rocket or missile than a train! I'm glad that two of them have already been preserved, and presumably a few more will be in the coming years as the type has been in service for over 20 years! Excellent footage, as always :)
So great to Hiroshima! It’s been years since I had the honour of visiting Japan. I loved the okonomiyaki so much I even had one at the Osaka airport before flying home to Canada. We try and make it at home but it just is not the same😋
People of the world, you should go to Japan at least once in your life. Witness how Japanese people behave, witness how clean Japan is, witness how safe Japan is. It'll make you a better person. I know, because I visited Japan at least 25 times and I know how polite Japanese people are. Education starts at home and at school. That's why children behave themselves: no shouting, no standing on seats with their dirty shoes, they automatically take off their shoes first. Japanese people are the best.
I never got to visit Hiroshima, but I did spend a semester in Nagasaki back in college. Seeing the site of the bombing was an extremely humbling and sobering experience. I sincerely hope that nobody has to go through a nuclear bombing ever again.
Dear Solo Solo, coming from a person who grew up in a desert city with high heat, although some people frown on it, I would suggest you buy one of the metal hydro flasks (or one of the many, many much affordable options) so that you may stay constantly hydrated on your travels. I see you always have your tea or a bottle of water, but to avoid getting in the pickle you were in where you got heat stroke, I feel it best to always have that hydro flask that you can refill as you go. You gotta take care of yourself, so you can continue on your many adventures!!!!!
@@garryferrington811 ....one with a good wide but stylish brim, of a lightweight material, and vented for air circulation. I avoid caffeine after breakfast in the warm weather months unless staying indoors.
Those who remember still in pain. Those who forgot will in pain after remember. Which one more painful. The one who remember while others forgotten. Or the one who remember after forgotten.
I too teared up watching your video. Seeing so many people giving respect to the fallen with the floating candles and seeing the peace flame. And now, I fear the threat of world war is ever present again. Let us pray the flame of peace does it's job and becomes non-existent......
I used to live to go visit the deer in my local park and feed them luscious greens that grew just out of their reach. I would ride the no hello kitty car. That last meal was huge and looked delicious. Enough for a few days for me. Thank you for the trip ❤
26:14 Coffee ice cream is super common in New England, especially Rhode Island. And I went to that exact place and had that exact ice cream. The Rhode Islander in me was ecstatic. Tsukiji Fish Market also has coffee soft serve.
When i visited Miyajima, the weather was like this...questionably, i decided to climb the mountain behind the temple. Only the heavy rain showers prevented me from getting heatstroke, i'm sure. Beatiful area though, worth the climb to see the views.
thank you for bringing us to Hiroshima. Those oysters are plump!!! was it so warm now in Japan? take care of yourself and drink lots of water, we will be waiting for your next videos.
Thank you for making this video! The hotel is only 27 usd. I can't believe it!! I wish in US we can have such affordable hotel and nice train too🤩🤩🤩🤩 In San Francisco, for $27, I can't even afford hostel!
Спасибо за видео и ваш юмор. Забавный поезд. А когда вижу Херосиму , сердце сжимается от боли. В этой войне у нас погибло 27 миллионов, до сих пор еще хороним погибших в той страшной войне, плачем. Такое не должно повториться! Мира вам люди! Привет из Санкт-Петербурга, Россия
I was out and about running errands by foot on Aug. 5 on a day that was overcast but warm and very humid. I was so tired by the time I got home I couldn't function properly. I can so relate to your headache, being prone to stress-induced migraines myself. You did the best thing by resting in a cool, dry, quiet room until it eased.
Дорогой друг! Спасибо за видео. Это очень интересно, познавательно и красиво! Мне очень нравится, что каждый раз вы благодарите за еду❤ И все эти люди которые каждый раз машут рукой поезду !!! Thank you so much!!!😮
I warmly remember as a child under 9 when I was so sick, and my blessed father came to my room with a tray decked out with raw oysters and saltine crackers. We ate together, and my stomach felt to much better. Follow that lesson to this day over 50 years later. Even my children know....raw oysters, and in a pinch, pickled herring for breakfast is great too!
You should get some of those electrolyte candies that they sell everywhere in summer in Japan. They don't seem like much, but they help prevent the headaches as long as you remember to actually eat them (I keep forgetting them at home) while you're out and about. They taste pretty good too so that's a benefit. I visited Hiroshima many years ago and have a bit of a love-hate relationship to it. It's a beautiful town and the people are some of the friendliest you'll ever meet, but its history (and seeing it up close) just makes me so sad. I went there off-season so there weren't many people around when I was there and I was able to wander around without having to stand in line. So I went into the museum and such as well. If you go there, bring tissues because that exhibit hits you like a ton of bricks. Miyajima is a lot of fun though. I was there during low tide so I was able to walk out to the torii-gate. It's much bigger than what it looks in the video. Hiroshima Castle is fun as well. I don't know if they do anymore, but they had a performance group (dressed as ninjas and samurai) that put on a performance a couple of times a day on the castle grounds. Then there's rabbit-island, but I didn't have time to visit it while I was there. My friend did though and she enjoyed it.
If you go to Miyajima once again, you will have to climb to the top of Mt. Misen. It is called there are 7 Mysteries since ancient times. Also, the magnificent view from the top is a true gem in Miyajima.
I saw the replica of a famous Japanese Buddhist temple in Hawaii. There were black swan, and i struck the gong. It is a peaceful place and entry was $5. I liked the lanterns and the Hello Kitty train, thanks 🙂
I want to cry because the world is not covering the tragedy in Hiroshima. I am very sorry that something like this could even happen. This video made me think about a lot. Thanks to Mr. Pug at the end for being able to cheer me up)
Thank you for the Hiroshima section. No commentary necessary. Blessings to you for a beautiful scene.

Those who remember still in pain.
Those who forgot will in pain after remember.
Which one more painful.
The one who remember while others forgotten.
Or the one who remember after forgotten.
Thanks so much for mentioning about the devastation of Hiroshima. Let's live indeed!
OBRIGADO, Hoje moro no Brasil, Trabalhei na Provincia de HIROSHIMA em TAKAMIYA durante 12anos, DEIXA muita SAUDADE.
Thank you for documenting your stay whilst feeling ill. You are very much appreciated and loved.
I loved how the kid was waving at the train. How sweet!❤
I too teared up watching your video. Seeing so many people giving respect to the fallen with the floating candles and seeing the peace flame. And now, I fear the threat of world war is ever present again. Let us pray the flame of peace does it's job and becomes non-existent......
Thank you for your beautiful and respectful video. Japanese people are awesome.💖🙏
The lanterns were beautiful ❤
Hiroshima is beautiful. A really enjoyable video.
Японцы такие воспитанные, деликатные, на их фоне иностранцы плавающие возле ворот Тории, снимающие для Тик Тока выглядят как обезьяны в зоопарке.
Hermoso video!!! Divertido y a la vez emotivo. Saludos desde Buenos Aires/Argentina 🇦🇷🫶👋
Very nice. I'd love to visit Japan some day. Pay my respects in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Maybe take a ferry trip.
Yes, let's live! We need to all get along!
I like they left the building like that. Never forget.
I used to live to go visit the deer in my local park and feed them luscious greens that grew just out of their reach. I would ride the no hello kitty car. That last meal was huge and looked delicious. Enough for a few days for me. Thank you for the trip ❤
26:14 Coffee ice cream is super common in New England, especially Rhode Island. And I went to that exact place and had that exact ice cream. The Rhode Islander in me was ecstatic.
Tsukiji Fish Market also has coffee soft serve.
Soba's actually a pretty good thing to eat for a headache. The heat makes you lose salt and water, and eating soba replenishes that.
My friend, my enthusiasm for you is going away, I will make a long train journey one day, I wish you success 🙌
When i visited Miyajima, the weather was like this...questionably, i decided to climb the mountain behind the temple. Only the heavy rain showers prevented me from getting heatstroke, i'm sure. Beatiful area though, worth the climb to see the views.
thank you for bringing us to Hiroshima. Those oysters are plump!!! was it so warm now in Japan? take care of yourself and drink lots of water, we will be waiting for your next videos.
Thank you for making this video! The hotel is only 27 usd. I can't believe it!! I wish in US we can have such affordable hotel and nice train too🤩🤩🤩🤩 In San Francisco, for $27, I can't even afford hostel!
For this money you can rent a 2-room apartment in my city😮😮
I love your sense of humor 😄. What a beautiful and honoring ceremony. Thank you for sharing this with us, as well as your other adventures.
Спасибо за видео и ваш юмор. Забавный поезд. А когда вижу Херосиму , сердце сжимается от боли. В этой войне у нас погибло 27 миллионов, до сих пор еще хороним погибших в той страшной войне, плачем. Такое не должно повториться! Мира вам люди! Привет из Санкт-Петербурга, Россия
I was out and about running errands by foot on Aug. 5 on a day that was overcast but warm and very humid. I was so tired by the time I got home I couldn't function properly. I can so relate to your headache, being prone to stress-induced migraines myself. You did the best thing by resting in a cool, dry, quiet room until it eased.
Спасибо автору. Короткая занимательная история. Хиросиму помним.
Hello kitty has a cafe, a train, a plane, and a whole bunch of other things. She’s probably going to have her own country in a few years.
Дорогой друг! Спасибо за видео. Это очень интересно, познавательно и красиво! Мне очень нравится, что каждый раз вы благодарите за еду❤ И все эти люди которые каждый раз машут рукой поезду !!! Thank you so much!!!😮
Спасибо за еду =)
I warmly remember as a child under 9 when I was so sick, and my blessed father came to my room with a tray decked out with raw oysters and saltine crackers. We ate together, and my stomach felt to much better. Follow that lesson to this day over 50 years later. Even my children know....raw oysters, and in a pinch, pickled herring for breakfast is great too!
And for a bad cold, hot whisky and lemon. Dad gave me that, and, by gosh, it worked. (I didn't drop dead or become an alcoholic, either.)
@@garryferrington811 Oh, I also remember well the whiskey in a cup of hot tea and lemon. thanks for the memories......
You should get some of those electrolyte candies that they sell everywhere in summer in Japan. They don't seem like much, but they help prevent the headaches as long as you remember to actually eat them (I keep forgetting them at home) while you're out and about. They taste pretty good too so that's a benefit.
I visited Hiroshima many years ago and have a bit of a love-hate relationship to it. It's a beautiful town and the people are some of the friendliest you'll ever meet, but its history (and seeing it up close) just makes me so sad. I went there off-season so there weren't many people around when I was there and I was able to wander around without having to stand in line. So I went into the museum and such as well. If you go there, bring tissues because that exhibit hits you like a ton of bricks.
Miyajima is a lot of fun though. I was there during low tide so I was able to walk out to the torii-gate. It's much bigger than what it looks in the video.
Hiroshima Castle is fun as well. I don't know if they do anymore, but they had a performance group (dressed as ninjas and samurai) that put on a performance a couple of times a day on the castle grounds.
Then there's rabbit-island, but I didn't have time to visit it while I was there. My friend did though and she enjoyed it.
Rabbit was America's favorite white meat until 1941. Then Bugs Bunny showed up and it wasn't.
If you go to Miyajima once again, you will have to climb to the top of Mt. Misen. It is called there are 7 Mysteries since ancient times. Also, the magnificent view from the top is a true gem in Miyajima.
Missing you! long time no see ! Your best 👍👍👍💪💪💪
Awe!! How charming!! I so loved the Hello Kitty train!! That was so fun!! ❤
The Hiroshima memorial hurt my heart.❤
lets gooo! i took the Kodama when it was doing the Evangelion 500 TYPE EVA and it was so fun 🥰
Loveley video love the little boy waving to the train so cute
i hope some day, that flame can finally be put out. ❤
Very interesting trip report, thanks for sharing your experience! 🙂👍
I saw the replica of a famous Japanese Buddhist temple in Hawaii. There were black swan, and i struck the gong. It is a peaceful place and entry was $5. I liked the lanterns and the Hello Kitty train, thanks 🙂
11:32 the little boy waving was so cute 💗
I would like the pink pot as a souvenir over the plastic train bento box.
4:00 And suddenly the Shinkansen goes into reverse, in the general direction of Anchorage.
This is your most kawaii trip yet! Thanks for taking us along 😍
Good Job Brother ❤️ From 🇮🇳🇮🇳🥰🥳
was good to see you at the hiroshima memorial. I liked seeing the history
I really like this guy’s subtle humour lol
Love the Food, it even better with the Souvenirs....Looks like it could use some Picamas(tastier than Wasabi....IMHO)...Great Ride, once again...TYVM
Very nice. My kid requested that I would work harder so we can visit Japan. XD
I hope there will be more videos as they help me relax
I hope we can now say #RIPNuclearWars and never again.
Thank you for sharing the 78th memorial.
🤍❤🤍
Japan is a high-tech state in the world. Interesting video, my friend🤝🤝👍👌!
I want to cry because the world is not covering the tragedy in Hiroshima. I am very sorry that something like this could even happen. This video made me think about a lot. Thanks to Mr. Pug at the end for being able to cheer me up)
I like how you put for the video a cat like hello kitty with the train
